Background:
Variety trials for all of Manitoba’s major crops are conducted across the crop growing regions of Manitoba every year by the Manitoba Crop Variety Evaluation Team (MCVET). This performance data, along with variety characteristic information, is summarized in “SEED MANITOBA” and online at www.seedinteractive.ca. Both formats provide long term yield data as well as annual yield comparisons at various locations.
